Quote by Jennifer A. Nielsen

“You made the right choice," Roden whispered. "Though you did choose his name rather quickly. "He has a skinny neck. He'd have died faster." (Jaron) "That's why you chose me? Because it'll take me longer to die?" "Yes, Roden, that's exactly why." "Enough bickering!" (Vargan)”

“You give them an environment where they feel they can grow. But also make bloody sure you challenge them. You make sure they realise learning is hard. Because if you don’t, if you only make it a safe haven, if it’s all clap-happy, and ‘everything the kids do is great’, then what are you creating? Emotional toffees, who’ve actually learnt nothing, but who then have to go back and face the real world … Find that balance, it stretches you, it stretches you as far as you’ll go.”
